Meeting new friends :)

J
over 4 years ago

Hello! I'm a 17 year old girl diagnosed with autism a few months ago. I've always struggled with friendships and making and keeping bonds with people.

I live in Glasgow, Scotland and currently have no way of making new friends or meeting new people

I've left school and started college as I hated school and didn't want to do the optional last year but since it's all online I am incredibly lonely as I can't meet anyone new on my course and I don't have people from school to keep in touch with.

I really want to make new friends but I don't really know how to go about it? I can't meet people in person because there's nowhere to go where I can meet people but adding mutuals on social media hasn't worked either

I'm quite isolated and lonely and with the current situation, it seems I won't be meeting people from my college for a very long time

I thought that maybe posting on here would help me meet some people that are like me?

If anyone else is in the same or a similar situation I would love to chat

Any advice on meeting and getting to know new people is also appreciated! :)
